    We (Hubert & Ute) live on our Alpe with cows, pigs and sheeps. The alpe is open to public at weekends and we offer regional, organic snacks and drinks. There is a vegetable garden where we grow organic vegetables. The Alpe is located at 950 metres above sea level directly on the Carl-Hirnbein-Weg, from here there is a direct hiking trail to Hauchenberg.
